BaronTuman Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Here's something that I've been puzzling over for a while now, and not come up with a good idea, so I'm turning it over to my fellow tomb-lords. I'm looking to make some ITC style terrain with a necron theme. It should ideally have an esthetic similar to our vehicles with broad flat surfaces with ingrained schematic-like lines etched into the surface. But... and this is the important part, it should be FUNCTIONALLY similar to GW imperial ruins, with thin walls, multiple levels and hollow central areas to stand models in. Ideas anyone? Pictures, or sketches would be wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconCouch Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 That could be tricky for Necrons. I think they feature a lot of geometric shapes, but are kind of blockyIDICBeer has some Necron terrain he features in his batreps on Youtube that might help give you inspiration perhaps?

Tyr13 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Yeah, necron ruins rarely have thin walls... it looks weird if its not a monolithic slab of scifi rock. Which is why all terrain available out there is some variation of a pyramid, an obelisk or a big cube or cylindrical thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyriks Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 You could maybe make a sort of hollow pyramid that has been cracked open, with thin walls and multiple levels. Picture the GW Imperial terrain but with the outside walls tilted instead of straight up. I don't know how feasible that is to make, though. Plasticard might work for it.

Kierdale Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 https://ttcombat.com/search?type=product&q=Cyber Those are fantastic, and very reasonable IMO :tu: I was going to suggest that you can use GreenStuffWorld’s texture rollers not only on GreenStuff but also - if you press hard enough - on XPS/foamboard (not the kind made of lots of little balls!). We used it for my son’s AoP base recently and it can texture sheets, what you then make is up to you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaronTuman Posted October 26, 2019 Author Share Posted October 26, 2019 Inspired to do a direct search brought up this : https://store.frontlinegaming.org/terrain/itc-terrain-series/itc-robot-city-terrain/ Which is pretty much exactly what I asked for. I think I'll give something like this a shot, but maybe angle the walls of the buildings rather than having them completely vertical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTaW Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) I'm late to the party, but the resource thread has a few links to Necron terrain in it. Edited October 27, 2019 by NTaW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyriks Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I have bought a lot of FLG terrain and I'm not sure I'd recommend it. A lot of stuff didn't line up right and took a lot of work to get it to go together. It's cheaper than GW terrain but not cheap enough for the hassle it was. What I have in mind is like the corners of a Tesseract Vault but wider and with a few levels, like there was a complete structure that was blasted open.
